Socialism by the seaside | Morning Star
I have family who settled in Eastbourne so I visit a couple of times a year. It would be wonderful to have a memorial to the great Frederik Engels's association with the town.

@StephanieJane i have been noticing for a few years, and so have others.
Moment of sadness as i had so may good #ladybird conversations on Twitter over the years - now canโt even remember all the interesting things i learned there! I think their populations fluctuate a bit but here in #Eastbourne itโs been almost none for at least 5 years
#ClimateDiary Our current experience of the #NewAbnormal here in #Eastbourne #Sussex #UK: Day after day of rain (soo much rain now!) dark oppressive skies, and endless wind. I know of course that we are the lucky ones - no heatwave or floods - but even here you can feel just how unsettled everything is. We all feel it, the whole family. Plus all the news from elsewhere. Hard to get on with normal things.

Today's #ThickTrunkTuesday mini series will be on the #HolmOak (Quercus Ilex)
I absolutely love the Holm Oaks growing in my neighbourhood here in #Eastbourne. It took me a while to notice them when we first moved, only slowly realising that these magnificent, beautiful trees were all the same species. I learned through a Facebook posts that they were holm oaks, which were first brought to the UK in the late 1500s, and became a popular seaside tree from the 1800s.

@RhinosWorryMe thank you, this i great! I was thinking by the way, of perhaps making every Friday a day on #ClimateDiary (or independent of that) a day for talking about #ClimateAction.
Was remembering how in my early days of all this, when I set up a @parents4future group here in #Eastbourne, we did #FridayAction (inspired by #FridaysForFuture) for a while.
Everyone had to do and report a positive action. Maybe we can make Fridays a day for taking and talking about Climate Action here, too?

Any horny lads up for sleazy threeway fun tonight in Eastbourne?
Boyfriend and me are horny ๐
9/x But really noone should cut Iroko at all! It is an #oxalogenic species which fixes carbon into the soil (and fertilises), one of the best trees to plant right now for #CarbonCapture. I learned this from an #Eastbourne fellow #ClimateActivist (activist in the loosest sense - people who do things about #ClimateChange) and you can read more here. I am not an expert on this myself, but the Iroko really is one of our #SuperTrees

2/x a while later i noticed this #yew right next to St Maryโs #church here in #Eastbourne and realised there may be connection between yews and churches. It happened to be Easter that day - also about #Pagan and #christian syncretism

@HelenG same here in #Eastbourne. I wonder whether this might be air pollution from the #Canada #wildfires reaching us? It was supposed to get to Europe this week. But not sure, might be something else

@wibble @iBlame thank you - really interesting! I am learning a lot today. And yes, nothing is being washed away or eaten, a lot of of dry stuff everywhere. Combined with lack of spraying (๐) itโs pretty wild out there in our #Eastbourne neighbourhood just now! ๐
@tobeB this is exactly what i have been thinking! So glad #GeorgeMonbiot wrote this, thank you for sharing here. Canโt forget this far-right placard during COP26 in Glasgow - it sums it all up. It may be pretty fringe still at the moment, but better to recognise it (adding a recent #ConspiracyTheory ๐งตafter finding a flyer here in #Eastbourne with all this on it)
